PearlJG16 Jungle Gig Floor Tom to Bass Drum Converter Kit
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Conversion hardware that turns a 16-inch floor tom into a kick drum. For drummers building a compact kit from parts they already own.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Small stages and low-volume rooms where a full kick is too much
- Cocktail, jazz, and acoustic gigs needing a smaller footprint
- Repurposing a floor tom sitting unused in the closet
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Drummers wanting deep, full-size bass drum volume and low end
- Anyone without a 16-inch floor tom to convert
- Players needing a double pedal setup
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Built for 16-inch toms
The 16-inch diameter sets your kick voice: punchier and higher pitched than a 20 or 22.
Detail 03
Kit format
Sold as a hardware package, not a drum. What you get is the mounting system, not a playable kick.
Detail 04
Around sixty dollars
Far cheaper than buying a compact bass drum, assuming the floor tom is already yours.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01No drum included. You supply the 16-inch floor tom
- 02No bass drum pedal included
- 03You may want a proper bass drum batter head for pedal impact
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does this come with the drum?
No. This is the conversion hardware only. You provide a 16-inch floor tom, a bass drum pedal, and any head you want to swap in.
02Will it work with a 14- or 18-inch tom?
It is designed around a 16-inch floor tom. Other diameters risk poor leg fit and an unstable drum under pedal pressure.
03How does it sound compared to a real kick drum?
Tighter and higher pitched. A 16-inch shell has less air to move, so you get punch and note definition rather than deep low end.
04Does it work with non-Pearl floor toms?
Fit depends on your tom's lug and mount spacing. Check the hardware layout on your drum before ordering.
